I agree with you, Professor ... I don't want Republicans to kill the filibuster.

Behind every successful lie is a kernel of truth.

The Republican Senate actually could pass the CR and reopen the government today. It only takes 51 Senators to eliminate the filibuster rule.

AND THAT IS PRECISELY WHAT THE DEMOCRATS WANT.

President Trump is DEAD WRONG in encouraging almost demanding the elimination of the filibuster.

The filibuster is OUR LAST DEFENSE AGAINST TOTALITARIANISM - or MOB RULE to be more precise.

Yes, I argued for it's elimination in years gone by, but I was dead wrong on the issue. IT MUST STAY.
